The problem here is that JiBX for some reason things the B class mapping does not extend the Ref class mapping. Given your binding, this should work, so I'm not sure where the problem is arising.
I suggest you first double-check to make sure that all your classes are up to date (so clean all the class files and rebuild). If they are, and you're still getting the problem, bundle up the code along with an Ant build script and enter a Jira bug report (see http://jibx.sourceforge.net/bugs.html). I'll try to check it out sometime soon. - Dennis Dennis M.
